OptiPro will be hosting our next live webinar tomorrow, February 19th from 2:00 PM to 2:30 PM EST on OptiSonic: The Latest in Ultrasonic Machining Technology. Learn how optical manufacturers can achieve unprecedented grinding results for both hard and soft optical materials by utilizing OptiPro's new ultrasonic machining solution, OptiSonic. OptiSonic combines the capability of OptiPro's current optical grinding platforms with ultrasonic assistance to achieve the highest cutting efficiency. This powerful combination produces several key benefits:

• Rapid material removal and reduced cycle times with increased speeds and feeds
• Reduced tool wear when grinding hard optical materials such as sapphire and spinel
• Improved surface quality after grinding both hard materials and softer glasses including BK7 and Fused Silica

Ed Fess, R&D Manager at OptiPro, shares updates on active SBIR projects.

OptiPro engineers shared the latest technological advancements on a variety of solutions for optical manufacturing, including UltraForm Finishing, UltraSurf, and OptiSonic. In addition, updates on PROSurf, OptiPro's innovative CAM software tailored to freeform optics manufacturing, were presented as the product nears commercialization. 

Upon the conclusion of the open meeting, OptiPro hosted a networking event at our 30,000 square foot facility where guests were able to see live demonstrations of OptiPro's innovative optical fabrication platforms.  

OptiPro recognizes the importance of the SBIR program to facilitate the advancement of American-made technology for precision optics fabrication. The development of these solutions will not only help precision optics manufacturers prosper, but also achieve cost-effective manufacturing of current and future military optical components.
